Yangonin

Description:

Yangonin is a natural compound classified as a benzopyran derivative, primarily found in the plant species *Piper methysticum*, commonly known as kava. It is recognized for its psychoactive properties and has been studied for its potential therapeutic effects, particularly in relation to anxiety and stress relief. Yangonin exhibits a unique chemical structure that contributes to its biological activity, including interactions with the endocannabinoid system. The compound is known for its lipophilic nature, which allows it to easily cross biological membranes. In terms of solubility, yangonin is generally soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Its pharmacological profile suggests that it may influence neurotransmitter systems, although further research is needed to fully elucidate its mechanisms of action and potential health benefits. As with many natural products, the safety and efficacy of yangonin in clinical applications require careful consideration and further investigation.

Controlled Product

CAS: 500-62-9

Applications Isotope labelled analog of Yangonin (Y100550), a lactone isolated from the Kava plant (Piper methysticum). The active constituents of Kava are a group of approx. 18 compounds collectively referred to as kavalactones or kava pyrones. Kawain, dihydrokawain, methysticin, dihydromethysticin, yangonin, and desmethoxyyangonin are the six major kavalactones. Kava beverages and other preparations are known to be anxiolytic and are used for anxiety disorders. Dietary supplements containing the root of the kava shrub have been implicated in several cases of liver toxicity in humans, including several who required liver transplants after using kava supplements.

Yangonin

CAS: 500-62-9

Yangonin is a kavalactone, which is a type of compound found in the roots of the Piper methysticum plant, commonly known as kava. This product is derived through the extraction of kavalactones from the kava root, a process that isolates its active psychoactive components. Yangonin is known for its interaction with the brain's neuroreceptor systems, particularly the cannabinoid CB1 receptors. This interaction may contribute to its psychoactive effects, influencing mood and perception.
